Feel free to indulge in the world famous plant that allows natives to "leave their body and glide over the tropical island" when they use it for pleasure or during their ceremonies.  This is one of the best psychoactive herbs we offer, especially since it's gained FDA approval, as well as approval from the World Health Organization.  We buy ours direct from one the farm that grows the most potent strain of kava kava root available  (Their Mahakea Kava Root possesses a rare chemotype line-up of 4-2-6).  With our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee and a wide array of Kava products ranging from pure kava root, to Kavalactone Paste and Capsules, to our famous Instant Drinks, as well as the potent new "Kavalovetone Capsules, experiment with complete confidence.
 
As stated in several clinical studies, the primary effect of kava is stimulation followed by sedation of the central nervous system. Small doses produce a sense of well-being, while larger doses produce extreme relaxation, and eventually induce a deep sleep.  One important thing to note is that all these studies showed the same thing that is true for many herbal supplements; that it may take several times of taking Kava to feel the effects.  If you try it once, don't immediately run to the Post Office to return it; try it out a few times, and see if you not only start to notice and understand the effects, but see if you start to feel the effects more intensely as well.
 
As with many herbal supplements, every individual is different, and every body will react differently to the active components of anything that's introduced into the body (even food).  Interestingly enough, though, a Full Spectrum Extract of the kava roots reportedly yields noticably higher levels of kavalactones than when an isolted alkaloid extraction of just the kavalactones is done.
 
Something that we find particularly exciting, is that there are several studies which indicate that Kava has effects (in larger doses) that are similar to sedative drugs, but without the side effects of addiction or tolerance. Furthermore, we even found a study that found kava not to impair alterness or interact with moderate alcohol consumption.  In fact, an aticle posted on the Kona Kava Farm Blog indicates that a Kava Ban Increased the Abuse of Alcohol in one town.
 
From published research, 3 grams of plain Kava root, divided into 1 gram doses seems, or 50-70 mg of kavalactones taken three times daily has been prescribed by European doctors as an anti-anxiety medication.  But, we cannot make those kinds of statements here in the USA, so we want to make it clear that any of the statements on this page in relation to Kava have not been approved by the FDA, and that any of our Kava products are not intended to diagnose, prevent, or cure any disease.
 
Two interesting facts we would like to include are simply these:
 
1. Saliva reportedly activates the kavalactones, so this is why the mouth gets numb.
2. Human studies using kava at therapeutic dosages failed to indicate toxicity.
 
Find much more on the Kona Kava Blog, from the many throughout that same website, or look to the Piper methysticum - Kava Kava article at www.Entheology.org, where they focus on the ritualistic use, preparation, and psychoactive properties of this sacred and ancient Shamanistic plant, as well as countless others.
